Republicans mocked a tweet from a State Department official who tied Sunday's Cuban protests with the country's rise in COVID-19 cases.

Julie Chung, the acting assistant secretary of the department's Buruea of Western Hemisphere Affairs tweeted Sunday, 'Peaceful protests are growing in Cuba as the Cuban people exercise their right to peaceful assembly to express concern about rising COVID cases/deaths & medicine shortage.'

'We commend the numerous efforts of the Cuban people mobilizing donations to help neighbors,' she added.

This is your country "high on" Communist China.

A lot of the protesters are not wearing masks, so it’s not the ‘rona they’re afraid of.

[Lurkinanloomin]

When will someone have the guts to say that the Biden administration ARE communists?

[blackdog]

And Benghazi was about a YouTube video. What’s next in “The World According to Rice?” This Obama bunch sure are playing on our lowest possible level of intelligence, and winning too!

[Don Corleone]

Biden hasn’t a clue as to what he is doing. His handlers do.

[BenLurkin]

As far as Biden/Harris are concerned, the Cuban protestors are “right-wing extremists.”

[dfwgator]

There are a lot of secrets in Cuba, that the Democrats and their Hollywood pals don’t ever want to go public.

[Tommy Revolts]

They LIE! It goes against their Marxist narrative.

[Nifster]

The WH and dems are the Democrat party of the CPUSA

[Nifster]

Whitaker Vhambers tried to warn us

[DPMD]

Okay, so it wasn’t COVID. Climate change, then.

[wally_bert]

I guess if the exposure risk of those secrets became too great, an F15 flyover with an extra special payload? Accidentally released of course.

[occamrzr06]

Peaceful protests are growing in Cuba

Watch out when the protests become "mostly peaceful"!

[TigersEye]

It would be strange if communists didn’t play cover for other communists.

[Major Matt Mason]

I'd say the "Democrat" party as a whole is communist, or maybe Obammunist since it is that crowd that is running the show in DC.

[Jane Long]

Have Republicans torn into XiDen for his absurd door-to-door tyranny?

Have Republicans torn into Dems over the absurd 1/6 investigations??

Have Republicans torn into XiDen/anyone over the stolen election?

Nope....they only tear into ‘ridiculous’ tweets.

Got it.

[Skepolitic]

Biden’s administration is chock full of communists and is dominated by them.

There. I said it.

Julie Ching can take a hike; I like Connie Chung more!
